BASIC Communications did a very professional job installing our Dish Network. JD was very knowledgeable and took the time to show us all the great features the Hopper has to offer. Living in Northern Michigan can take it’s toll so having what I want to watch on TV is a must.

Mark did a great job installing our HughesNet. He was very professional and personable. I would definitely recommend BASIC Communications if you are looking to have an amazing experience!

Just wanted to let you know those guys at the Howell location always do right by me and go above and beyond to make sure that we are satisfied customers every time we have an issue. Just recently swapped out a phone for me that had a severely cracked screen and broken charging port. Well anyways 10/10 from me and my family!

Hello, I wanted to send you a quick email to let you know my husband and I had an excellent experience recently at the sprint store in Ludington. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. I had a crack in my cell phone screen and had been putting it off for a while because normally we dread going into cell phone stores but we had quick service and they were also great with our kids. We will be back for our future cell phone needs.
Thank you for the great service!
